Biosphere VR

Our goal at Fox Documentaries is to bring the impacts of climate change closer to those who see it as a distant problem. We take viewers around the world and show them first hand how climate change is already bringing devastating challenges for the worlds most vulnerable communities. Fox Media Documentaries is a forward-thinking and pioneering Danish Documentary company based in central Copenhagen (Christianshavn). We work on developing artistic VR documentaries that have both an emotive and educational impact on audiences. Our newest venture, Biosphere VR ( www.biospherevr.com ), consists of five different cinematic VR-experiences that connect spectators with the climate change crisis through immersive technology. Each of the five experiences is seen through the eyes of a particular local individual (narrator) in Beijing, Jordan, Ethiopia, Kiribati and Morocco. See more here: https://www.biospherevr.com/#biosphere. Each VR-experience runs between 5 and 10 minutes and engages audiences on a deeply personal and emotional level. Simultaneously, the five VR-experiences effectively tap into the fundamental consequences of global warming and provide clear and engaging educational content. These experiences have already received a significant commendation at many highly acclaimed international film festivals including VR Days, COP: DOX and Cinequest Film and VR. In addition, Biosphere’s five individual VR experiences have so far been tested in two different educational institutions: Maglegaard School in Denmark, and Learning Lab at Tsinghua University in Beijing (China). Both tests have produced impressive results, with all spectators reporting an increased motivation for learning following their engagement with Biosphere VR. We have also conducted workshops in the US and at COP-summits. For further information about our educational project, please visit ://www.biospherevr.com/introduction-in-the-school#new-page-35https. In addition to the five existing experiences we have produced, we are interested in producing more stories in other parts of the world: including Germany, the Netherlands, the Arctic, among many others. We also intend to conduct more workshops in order to raise awareness of the climate change crisis, as well as to encourage and inspire more climate change initiatives. We are also looking to expand into museums and to conduct exhibitions. Our current focus is to establish partnerships with foreign governments to provide funding for future productions related to climate change in the developing world.

SaleAid

In the middle of summer last year (2020) Richard and Lukas had a conversation about how the Swedish youth was so engaged in the Hypebeast culture and how unreasonably expensive it was. That was when this idea was created and throughout the past year it has evolved into something far greater than just a price comparison website for expensive clothing, SaleAid was born. SaleAid aims to create a new kind of price comparison website, which targets on finding the best discounted prices for the user. With a more user friendly platform that offers the user a broader variety of functions when searching for the best price on their product. In the current global market more and more shopping is being done online. During the current pandemic the amount of people choosing to shop from home has increased immensely. With countless stores available at the tip of your fingers, people tend to be more cost conscious. Since they can easily compare prices on the same product sold at different online stores. We all know price comparison websites already exist to help customers find the best prices. However, we have found that there are many aspects of the online shopping needs that are not met by the current price comparison websites. Most of the existing websites provide the customer with the best retail price. With SaleAid we want to change how price comparison websites operate. Our goal is to build a modern customer oriented website with one main focus, finding the best sales for the customers desired product. Ultimately resulting in the best possible price, hence discounted prices are almost always lower than the best retail price. By creating an account on SaleAid, the customer will be offered a price monitoring function which means the customer will not personally have to monitor the prices regularly. Instead the user is supplied with a notification when their desired product's price has changed. With or without an account all users will be able to see the price history of all products. If the user is in desperate need of a product, they can also choose to be shown the best offer in a physical store closest to them. In addition to the functions named above, SaleAid is also unique by providing the customer with a broader variety of retailers. We offer the user the ability to with just one click expand their search and find products on sale, not only domestically, but for example in the north or in Europe. Making international shopping the most affordable and accessible it has ever been. Apart from all the neat functions, we aim for SaleAid to be used differently than current PCWs. We do not want SaleAid to become just another PCW that users spend less than a minute on before moving on. We want to create a platform for users to browse and shop on, not just look up one specific product. We want to become the marketplace for the price conscious online shopper.

MCon Services

The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on! Our mission is to allow small and medium-sized business owners to save time and focus on what is truly important: growing their business. Instead of spending their time on day-to-day administration and management work. We do this through digital transformation and process automation. A lot of businesses have amazing potential that is not being utilized because day-to-day operations are taking up most of the time that otherwise could’ve been invested in developing new business ideas and income opportunities. In a large part, the reason for this rising potential is the technological advancement we have seen over the past few years. Although it is creating opportunities, a lot of companies have a hard time adapting their operational and administrative processes to this new way of doing business. As mentioned our whole reason for existence is to help companies go through digital transformation, to set themselves free of their old inefficient processes. We use a combination of different frameworks from the fields of Business Process Management and Software Development to tailor digital processes 100% to our client´s workflows, management and operations. The nature of our work can described as two integrated phases that each brings a unique value to our client. The first phase is all about in-depth analysis of current processes, painpoints, operation dynamics and redesign of these from a digital perspective adding the technological aspects. The second phase is related to developing the actual automation software, scripts, integrations and business logic using the technologies. There is a catch though: in the second phase, the first phase is actually repeated – the closer we work with the technical development the more opportunities arise along the way, which usually allows us to optimize the processes even more than expected. How and why did it start? “The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on.” I realized this when I was 16, working a boring data entry job. At that time, I had already moved out and really had to learn how to prioritize my time. My main goal and dream was to become a professional basketball player and this repetitive, boring job was just taking away my valuable time, which I could otherwise be spending at the gym. For the first time in my life, I had too many goals but too little time. So I decided to change that. What started as a few formulas and scripts to automate my data entry, quickly turned into an app, which turned into 5 apps, and by the time I was 18 turned into my own company. I realized how small and medium-sized business owners face the same issue I was facing – too many goals, but too little time. And the solution: process automation and digital transformation. 2 years later and counting, I am running a company of process specialists, analysts, consultants, developers, and technical writers to help companies and business owners create more time for what is truly important. The journey has been awesome, but to be honest it is not all about the success. Just like I see companies as a bunch of processes, I also see life as a process – a learning process! Most importantly, this journey has brought me amazing knowledge and experience, which I would never give up for anything, and it shaped into the fearless person I am today. For me, life is about challenging yourself and learning from it – throw yourself into the deep end yet learn to survive! I will say it one more time: "The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on!" Feel free to connect and get a cool conversation started!

POOW The Food Hero

Health Capacity is a start-up located in Helsingborg, Sweden. We are the company behind the service, POOW The Food Hero. The Problem: 50% of all children between the ages 2-5 will experience problems with foods during their childhood. Cirka 25% of these children will get the diagnose selective eating disorder. This results in a stressful mealtime situation for the whole family all the way from cooking the food to eating it. Another problem related to this is the pressure and demand on parents to cook healthy and variated food for their children. This is a very energy and time-demanding process and if it isn't taken seriously it can potentially affect the health of the whole family for a considerable future. The Solution: POOW The Food Hero is an application for smartphones and tablets, the application is via gamification helping children to eat more and better food while the children at the same time is learning about nutrition. The application is also providing families with healthy and easy-to-cook recipes that will activate the whole family. The result is a peaceful and interactive mealtime situation for all family members as the children will eat the food since they are aware of what they eat. The parents can also relax knowing that the food on the table is healthy and nutritious both for them and their children. We also want to mention that POOW is very effective for children with ADHD and autism who are struggling with a selective eating disorder.
